He sent a tsunami to the coasts of Russia, Japan and Hawaii

One of the strongest earthquakes ever, the far east of Russia early on Wednesday, as he sent tsunami to Japan, Hawaii and the West American coast. No major damage has been reported yet, but the authorities have warned people from the coast and said the risks may last more than one day.

Ports on the Camshatka Peninsula in Russia near the 8.8 earthquake center, the water was flooded when the residents escaped from the inside, and the white waves were washed into the beach in northern Japan. Street jamming cars and highways in the capital of Hawaii, with parked traffic even in areas far from the coastal line.

People went to the evacuation centers in the affected areas in Japan, with new memories of the 2011 and tuni earthquake that caused The collapse of the reactor At a nuclear power plant. No deformities in the operations in Japanese nuclear plants were reported on Wednesday.

The Russian authorities said that many people were injured, without giving a personality. In Japan, at least one person was injured.

Tsunami was registered from 10 to 13 feet in Kamchapka, and 2 feet on the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido, and up to 1.4 feet was observed over the tidal levels in the Alaska Islands.

Hours after the earthquake, Hawaii reduced a tsunami warning to a consultant, while the Japanese Meteorological Agency also reduced its alert to a consultant in the Pacific coast south of Fukushima. The alert is still in place north.

General Stephen Logan, the assistant year for the Ministry of Defense in the state of Hawaii, said that the consultations mean that there is a possibility of strong currents and dangerous waves, as well as floods on beaches or ports.

Hawaii and Oregon warn of potential damage

Dave Snyder, Tsunami Warning Coordinator at the National Tsunami National Warning Center in Alaska, said that a tsunami may last for hours or perhaps more than a day.

“Tsunami is not just one wave,” he said. “It is a series of strong waves over a long period of time. Tsunami crosses the ocean hundreds of miles per hour – as quickly as a jet plane – in deep water. But when they approach the beach, they slow down and start accumulating. This is where the problem of immersion becomes more than that."

He said: “In this case, because of the land that mainly sends these huge waves of water across the ocean, they will move back and forth for a long time,” which is why some societies may feel the effects for a longer period.

Hawaiian Josh Green Governor said that the Midway Atoll data, which is located between Japan and Hawaii, measures the peak waves to the basin 6 feet. He said that the waves hitting Hawaii may be larger or smaller and it was too early to know their size. He said that the tsunami of this size will be closer to a wave of 3 feet on top of the waves.

“This is a longitudinal wave with a great power that leads across the coastal line,” he said at a press conference.

Green said that Black Hawk helicopters were activated, and high -water vehicles were ready to go if the authorities needed to save people. “But please do not put yourself on the way to harm,” he said.

The Ministry of Emergency Administration in Oregon said on Facebook that small tsunami waves were expected along the coast from 11:40 pm local time, with a wave rise between 1 to 2 feet. He urged people to stay away from beaches, ports, marines and stay in a safe location away from the coast until the consultant is raised.

The ministry said: “This is not a big tsunami, but the dangerous currents and strong waves may pose a threat to those near the water.”

Most of the West Coast, which extends to California, Washington State, and the Canadian province of British Columbia, was also under the consultation of a tsunami.

Tsunami is expected to reach less than one feet to parts of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The provincial emergency agency said it was expected that the waves were expected to arrive on the island of Lanjara remotely at 10:05 pm on Tuesday and Tofino around 11:30 pm, and the agency said that “multiple waves over time” were expected.

Reporting the Russian regions of limited damage

Japanese earthquake scientists and the United States said that earthquakes at 8:25 am Japan time had a preliminary size of 8.0. The American geological survey later updated its strength to 8.8 size and a depth of 13 miles.

The earthquake focuses about 74 miles east to southeast of the Russian Petropavlovsk-kamchatsky city, with a population of 180,000, in the Kamchatka Peninsula. Many of the 6.9 spoofing tremors follow.

The mayor of Severokurilsk Alexander Ovsiankov said the city in the city was flooded with tsunami and washing fishing boats at sea. He said no significant damage was recorded.

Energy supplies were closed and the authorities were checking the power network after the floods.

Among the strongest earthquakes registered in the world

The earthquake seems to be the strongest anywhere in the world since the 9.0 -east earthquake in March 2011, which caused Huge tsunami That launched the collapses at a nuclear power plant. only A few stronger earthquakes It was measured all over the world.

Tsunami alert disrupted transportation in Japan, with phrases, trains and airports in the area affected by suspending or delaying some operations.

Tsunami was registered from two feet in the town of Hamanaka in Hokkaido and the Port of Koji in Iowat, according to the Japanese Meteorological Agency. Many areas have reported smaller waves, including 8 inches in Tokyo Bay, five hours after the earthquake.

In the northern town of Matsushima in Japan, dozens of residents resorted to an evacuation center, where the water bottles were distributed and the air conditioner was working. One person told NHK that she came to the facility without hesitation based on the 2011 tsunami.

A great captain in Japan’s cabinet, Yoshimasa Hayaishi, warned against those who may not be able to return to their homes by the end of the day, as tsunami can remain high.

Japanese nuclear power plants reported that there were no abnormalities. The operator of the Fukushima Dychi factory, which was affected by the 2011 tsunami, said that about 4,000 workers meet on a higher ground in the factory complex, with a distance monitoring to ensure safety.

The Philippine authorities advised people to stay away from the beach and coastal areas. “It may not be the largest wave, but it can last for hours and expose people who are swimming in the waters,” Terisito Baculcole of the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology told Associated Press.

The Mexican Navy has warned that tsunami will start reaching the northern coast in Insinada, near California, at about 22:22 am on Wednesday local time, and the waves can advance along the Pacific coast to the state of Chiabas, around 7:15 am local time.

The New Zealand authorities have warned of “strong, unusual currents and unpredictable offers” along all coasts in the South Pacific. The Emergency Management Agency said that people should get out of the water, and far beaches and away from the ports, the rivers, rivers and rivers.

People were urged to move away from the coasts until any wave was passed late on Wednesday in Fiji, Samoa, Tonga and the states of Al -Ittihad in Micronesia and Suleiman Islands.

Some small and low Pacific Island chains are among the world’s most tsunami and seas due to climate change.

Earlier in July, five strong earthquakes – The largest size of 7.4 – She was struck in the sea near Kamcha. It was the largest earthquake at a depth of 20 km and was 89 miles east of the city of Petropavlovsk-kamchatsky.
